    [Burning THAC0] B2: The Keep on the Borderlands

    ooc- Yeah. I've noticed that flaw. It seems to count one less if you ask it to sum the number of dice greater than or equal to X.

    ooc- I completely forgot about the dice roller for my last test. Whoops.

    [Burning THAC0] B2: The Keep on the Borderlands

    Aurvang paid the religious man's comments no mind. He was in the middle of a story when the paladin spoke, The trolll had a wart as big... as biggg... as biggghh as a ...turnip! Those around him laughed raucously. Of course, they had been drinking as long if not longer than he had. The dwarf...

    Looks good thus far. Thanks for putting that up!

    [Burning THAC0] B2: The Keep on the Borderlands (ooc/setup)

    I don't really care what the religious make up of the Keep is, since it has little to do with my character. I do like the idea of having a dwarven clan, or at least some dwarven merchants/nobles or something in the Keep that I can empathize with. I also like the idea of the Dwarven Host having...

    [Burning THAC0] B2: The Keep on the Borderlands (ooc/setup)

    I think a healthy mix of social and combat play would be great. I made Aurvang specifically for a dungeon-crawl, but it'd be a shame not to open up some social skills. I'm expecting a chance to do that. I'm sure there will be some social situations with the bandits and within the caves. I'm...

    [Burning THAC0] B2: The Keep on the Borderlands

    Great! I still would like to make a Drunking test to impress the patrons, maybe the Chevaliers in particular, with my drinking. They seem like a hardy, fun-timey crew with at least some rep in the Keep. If I can impress them that would probably be saying something. What do you say?

    [Burning THAC0] B2: The Keep on the Borderlands

    Aurvang wanders over, a flagon in each meaty hand. Come offf it nowwww.... yer all toooo seriousss. 'Ave a drink already. Soon enough we'll be 'offin 'eads and covered in blood The dwarf's eyes glaze over at the mention in blood. He abruptly stops speaking, looks from one flagon to the...

    [Burning THAC0] B2: The Keep on the Borderlands

    OOC - I think you are correct. We'd probably have to go full on Duel of Wits to convince these guys to help with the Caves, and honestly, I don't think we know enough about the situation or the Chevaliers to make a convincing argument.

    I don't have any skills to help, but I will have a loose tongue so it might be time to try Beginner's Luck with some kind of social skill.

    [Burning THAC0] B2: The Keep on the Borderlands (ooc/setup)

    Besides getting even more drunk I"m good to go. Actually, I wouldn't mind making a Drunking test to impress the tavern's patrons as I mentioned before. It could be a nice start to building a reputation :) What do you say Engrishonly?

    [Burning THAC0] B2: The Keep on the Borderlands (ooc/setup)

    I agree. I think this is great. You could even incorporate the "Say a prayer bit..." into your roleplaying, as in make in a habit to remind Constance she's walking the wrong path. Or you could use some other little "habit" to do it. Or you could not do it. Either way, I like where this is...

    [Burning THAC0] B2: The Keep on the Borderlands (ooc/setup)

    Yeah, I agree with this. That's what I was alluding too with the "Say a prayer for Constance's soul" idea. that was off the cuff so it could definitely be reworded/improved. It would still create tension and interesting situations without the immediate confrontation. Heck, the first few...

    [Burning THAC0] B2: The Keep on the Borderlands (ooc/setup)

    I just thought of something that might be fun. What about, "Whenever Constance steals or Pardons I say a prayer for her soul out loud". This could create a great dynamic between the two - Avros watching over Constance like a hawk, trying with futility, to spare her soul from eternal suffering...

    [Burning THAC0] B2: The Keep on the Borderlands (ooc/setup)

    Yes, it requires a test. That's the whole point - you build an automatic test into your character concept. It's a nice way to ingrain the mechanics into the concept. Of course, it's both good and bad, right? You gain a test every time you enter a room, but what about when you enter tavern...

    [Burning THAC0] B2: The Keep on the Borderlands (ooc/setup)

    This is a good idea. Looks like my successful test is taking me to the Bandits (nice work GM) so I'm down for kicking some bandit ass.
